Answer: 3 3/7 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

you need to find out how much work they can do in an hour.

let x represent the total collaborative work

1/8 + 1/6 = 1/x

3/24 + 4/24 = 1/x

7x = 24

x = 24/7 or 3 3/7 hours (in decimal form this is 3.4286)

I cannot guarantee this is correct but hope it helped

A.) which of these expressions is equivalent to 4 x x
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

a) The correct option is C: 4x

b) The correct option is B: 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Usually when we have a real number multiplying a variable, we do not need to write the multiplication symbol.

So instead of writing:

4×x

We can write:

4x

And this will be equivalent.

Then in this case the correct option is C.

b) We know that if we have the multiplication of A by n, this will be equivalent to add A n times.

Then if we have the sum of A, for example, 4 times, we have:

A + A + A + A

And this can be written as 4*A

In this case, we have the expression x + x.

So we are adding x two times, then this can be written as: 2*x, or, as we said earlier, this also can be written as 2x.

Then the correct option is option B.

Describe a real-world situation that the graph could represent. Then describe the possible values for each variable
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

Speed=distance/time i.e. relation between speed-distance-time is one such situation that can be modeled using graph

Step-by-step explanation:

There are many real world examples that can be modeled using graph. Graphs are represented on co-ordinate planes, so any real world example that can be represented by use of linear equation can be represented onto a graph.

One such example, is speed-distance-time relation. Uniform speed can be represented on a graph as shown in figure.

So, the equation for speed is represented by equation as follows:

Speed=distance/time

So, if we take distance on y axis and time on x axis with points as (distance,time)

(0,0) ==> v=0/0=0

(1,2) ==> v=1/2=0.5

(2,2) ==> v=2/2=1

the following points 0,0.5,1 will be plotted on graph. Similarly, more values can be plotted by assuming values for distance and time.

Answer:  Perimeter = 66 cm and area =66\ m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of rectangle is given by :-

P=2(l+w), where l is length and w is width of the rectangle.

Given : A rectangle has a length of 5.50 m and a width of 12.0 m .

Then, the perimeter of rectangle :

P=2(12+5.50)\\\\\Rightarrow\ P=2(17.50)=35\ m

Also, area of rectangle is given by :-

A=l\times w=5.50\times12=66 \ m^2

Area of rectangle = 66\ m^2

Find the sum of 18 + (-15).<br><br> A. 3<br><br> B. -3<br><br> C. 33<br><br> D. -33
Delvig [45]

Answer: 3

Step-by-step explanation: To find the sum of these two numbers, remember that adding a negative is exactly the same thing as subtracting a positive. In other words, when we see 18 + (-15), we can change the problem so it's easier to understand and we will change in to 18 - 15.

Now, this is just basic subtraction.

18 - 15 = 3

Therefore, 18 + (-15) = 3
